Fengkai County is a county in western Guangdong Province, China, under the administration of the prefecture-level city of Zhaoqing. It was formed in 1961 from the merger of Fengchuan and Kaijian Counties, which were formerly romanized as Fungchuan and Hoikin respectively.

Feng Prefecture or Fengzhou was a prefecture of the Tang and Song empires.

Under the Qing, Fengchuan and Kaijian made up part of the commandery of Zhaoqing.
